Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

Is this the Dark Side?

Is this just Tatooine?

Caught in podrace

To escape from this slavery

Open your eyes

Look up to the skies and see...

The One who is Chosen, I need no sympathy

Because the Darker Side

is my source

Powerful in the Force

Yoda and the Council, doesn't really matter to me

to me...

Mama, killed by Tusken fools

Put my saber to the test

As I slaughtered all the rest

Training, it had just begun

But now I've gone and married Padme

Padme, NOOOOOO!!!

Didn't mean to make you die

I guess I'll be Darth Vader after all

Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters

Too late, my legs are gone

Got a cybernetic spine

Body's aching all the time

Goodbye everybody - I've got to go

Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth

Padme, NOOOO...

Why'd you have to die

I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

I see a traitor and a spy on a ship

Senator, Senator, will you give me those plans now

Force choke and lightning - very very frightening me

R2D2, R2D2, R2D2

R2D2 where'd you go,

C3PO...

Just a moisture farmer, nobody loves me

He's just a Skywalker from a poor family

He won't become a monstrosity

Obi Wan training slow - will you let me go

Oh Yoda No! - let you go we will not let him go Oh Yoda No! let you go we will not let him go Oh Yoda No! let you go we will not let him go let you go we will not- let me go let you go we will not- let me go let you go we will not No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Oh Master Yoda, Master Yoda, Master Yoda let me go

The Emperor and Lord Vader waiting there for me

for me

for me!!!!

So you think that old Obi Wan would never lie?

So you think that your father the hero just died?

Skyyywalker, Luke I am your father

Just gotta get out - just gotta fall right outta here

Tssshh-Pahhh Tssshh-Pah

Just take off the helmet

I just want to see

Nothing else could matter...nothing else could matter to me...

Anyway the wind blows...

This may be one of the greatest posts in the history of Reddit. I salute your awesomeness.

For the fucking win.

But in Bicycle Race he says he doesn't like Star Wars!

[–]virulentRant 3 points4 points ago

Indubitably, that's why this picture confuses me whenever it comes up. NO ONE EVER HAS AN ANSWER TO THIS STATEMENT, and so I upvote it every time I see it so that I can finally kill the burning question caused by this logical inconsistency.

"Well, it's a fair question, I guess. But did you ever read 'MobyDick' ? I always remember the first words were "Call me Ishmael". But of course Herman Melville wasn't Ishmael. As with a novel, just because a song is written in the first person doesn't mean it's in any way autobiographical. As I remember, Freddie liked Star Wars a lot, and he actually wasn't very keen on riding his bicycle (if he even had one!) - he preferred being driven in a Rolls Royce! But he created a character in the song, and this character can say what he wants, and he can ride his bicycle where he likes!" -Brian May

Oh ok that makes sense. Just like J.D. Salinger probably wasn't a spoiled brat like Holden Caulfield. Thank you for the info :)

Imagine if Darth Vader carried Mercury around in all of the Star Wars movies... that would be a digital edit I would be all for.

[–]HowIMetYourMonkey 3 points4 points ago

It's the entire package: Power and Grace. Pride and Glory. Darth Mercury.

You can carry a gay man around on your shoulders and still maintain your heterosexuality. As a matter of fact, this picture makes Darth Vader even more straight.

[–]TheToastyMan 0 points1 point ago

This makes Darth Vader the coolest straight man to ever live. That right there is a fucking honor.

You can, but you are going to get poked in the back of the head a lot.

Can we please stop this already? This has the been the worst meme of all. Ever since his birthday Reddit will not let up on this guy. The top r/pics, the top r/f7u12, the top r/reddit.com. Please just fucking stop.
